Speaker 1: How are you sure? How are you feeling? You're pumped?

10
00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:27,680
Speaker 4: I mean, it was so good to see you here

11
00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:29,960
Speaker 4: in Australia the last couple of games against China. I

12
00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:32,520
Speaker 4: thought it took a while for you girls to warm

13
00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:36,559
Speaker 4: up against China in the Adelaide game, but at a

14
00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:40,400
Speaker 4: core stadium, I just felt like that would have been

15
00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:44,120
Speaker 4: a big relief Mackenzie, because the girls started, you started to.

16
00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:47,040
Speaker 1: Click and it looks really good going into the Olympics.

17
00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:51,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was good. The first game we sort of allowed.

18
00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:52,960
Speaker 5: Some players and don't get many minutes to get on

19
00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:56,560
Speaker 5: the field and yeah, I guess sort of show you

20
00:00:56,560 --> 00:00:59,960
Speaker 5: what they were about for the last game before selection

21
00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:02,000
Speaker 5: for Tony, so that was a great opportunity for them.

22
00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:05,200
Speaker 5: And then to yeah, I guess finish it off with

23
00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:08,000
Speaker 5: I guess the usual core group of players in Sydney,

24
00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:11,000
Speaker 5: and to get that win and also be able to

25
00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:13,960
Speaker 5: give many of that chance to have that send off

26
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:17,000
Speaker 5: game that I mean was really special for all of.

27
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:19,360
Speaker 3: Us was pretty amazing, and to break another record was

28
00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:21,679
Speaker 3: pretty cool as well. So yeah, real good be Kenzie.

29
00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:24,080
Speaker 2: Can I ask when we were talking about the swimming

30
00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:28,200
Speaker 2: earlier and the team selection and the why you know

31
00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:32,160
Speaker 2: your performance could be so fragile based on the elite

32
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:36,199
Speaker 2: level of athleticism you guys have. Does that mean now

33
00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:39,360
Speaker 2: just sort of prior to the Olympics, you're on a

34
00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:41,679
Speaker 2: strict diet. I mean, what have you had to change

35
00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:45,160
Speaker 2: now that we look at a competition like the Olympics.

36
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:47,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean I try and keep a pretty balanced

37
00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:52,680
Speaker 5: diet myself. Obviously with me being appointed the new chief

38
00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:55,120
Speaker 5: goal for you, food just recently has really helped me

39
00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:58,360
Speaker 5: sort of stick on that diet. They have some ready

40
00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:00,960
Speaker 5: made meals which helps for me where I need time

41
00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:03,240
Speaker 5: and all of that. So yeah, I've been trying to

42
00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:04,920
Speaker 5: lean on them as much as I can sort of

43
00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:07,640
Speaker 5: in the lead up to the Olympics, and a really.

44
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:11,440
Speaker 4: Big help obviously you're competing McKinzie, but it's the Olympics,

45
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:12,920
Speaker 4: like this is every kid's dream.

46
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:14,480
Speaker 1: We watched it growing up.

47
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:17,239
Speaker 4: But were there any moments, I mean, are you girls

48
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:18,919
Speaker 4: going to go to the opening ceremony?

49
00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:20,200
Speaker 1: Are you going to be a part of all of

50
00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:21,359
Speaker 1: these celebrations.

51
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:24,280
Speaker 4: Were there any Olympic moments for you when you were

52
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:27,120
Speaker 4: a young girl that sticks out in your mind that

53
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:28,760
Speaker 4: you remember from the Olympics.

54
00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:31,600
Speaker 3: I mean, I always remember watching the swimming growing up.

55
00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:33,640
Speaker 5: I don't think I was never really a big football

56
00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:35,239
Speaker 5: fan and we didn't really have many our foot I

57
00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:36,760
Speaker 5: don't think we really had our football team in the

58
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:38,679
Speaker 5: Olympics when I was growing up, so it was sort

59
00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:42,280
Speaker 5: of hard to aspire in that in that sense. But no,

60
00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:45,480
Speaker 5: I definitely remember watching the swimmers, Ian thought brand Hackett,

61
00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:48,000
Speaker 5: Susie O'Neil, that that kind of generation which was really

62
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:50,280
Speaker 5: cool to watch. But in terms of us going to

63
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:54,280
Speaker 5: the opening ceremony, we actually play the day before in

64
00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:56,200

Speaker 5: the opening.

66
00:02:56,680 --> 00:03:00,160
Speaker 2: Ceremony on Botunately, Yeah, McKenzie lean to consider too. I

67
00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:02,840
Speaker 2: don't think you already have one, but there would need

68
00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:06,320
Speaker 2: to be some serious consideration around whether you decide to

69
00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:12,000
Speaker 2: get the Olympic rings tattooed on some part of your body.

70
00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:15,440
Speaker 2: Is that something you've spoken about as a team.

71
00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:19,040
